The Republic of Wilkshire is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Paul Williams with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 46.587 billion Wilkshireans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vasbury. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Wilkshirean economy, worth an astonishing 15,177 trillion wilkoes a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 325,798 wilkoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Endangered species face obesity instead of extinction, goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter, signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, and newly synthesized elements' half-lives are a million times shorter than the time it takes to say their names. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wilkshire's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Wilkshire is ranked 220,846th in the world and 4,243rd in The North Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 40.25 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
